⚛ April 14th was World Quantum Day - an international initiative that invites all businesses, scientists, engineers, educators, communicators, entrepreneurs, technologists and more to showcase the latest advancements in quantum technologies and generate interest in quantum-based ambitions. Quantum has been identified as a key emerging and transformative technology that will have an impact on the UK's long term digital and economic future - underpinned by the National Quantum Strategy and additional £2.5 billion in funding announced by UK Government last March. In the coming years, Quantum will have the potential to enable smart cities, revolutionise healthcare systems and drive innovation in key industries. To prepare for this future, techUK has been working with the wider technology sector to secure the UK's quantum future and plan for success. To celebrate world quantum day, we asked industry experts within techUK membership what the common misconceptions around quantum technologies, and how this compares to the reality of quantum research and development. 👇🏻 𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘄 👇🏻   Special thanks to Steve Brierley Riverlane, Vishal Shete Terra Quantum AG, Richard Murray ORCA Computing, Oscar XT Tang Clifford Chance, Katie Lloyd Quantum Dice, Rahul Tyagi   Laura Foster | Rory Daniels | Sue Daley #UnleashingInnovation #Quantum #WorldQuantumDay __________ 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 🌍 Mark your calendars for Wednesday, June 19th, as our 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 returns to Central London from 8.30 am to 6 pm!  🎟️ 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: https://bit.ly/3wPd7gt   _________ 𝗨𝗻𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗨𝗞 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🚀 The opportunities for innovation are endless.
